Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Hertfordshire During the Great Civil War and the Long Parliament Fortunately, however, many of the communications which passed between the Herts Parliamentary Committee and the Committee for Both Kingdoms sitting in London, at critical points of the War for the Hertfordshire people, are preserved in the Letter-Books of the latter Committee, among the State Papers in the Public Record Office; and these, with the despatches of the Commanding Officers engaged within or upon the borders of the County, materially help to supply the missing links in the County Records. For information supplied, and for courteous assistance given, I am also indebted to representatives of some of the oldest Hertfordshire families whose ancestors were concerned in the troubles of the times under review - to the Marquis of Salisbury, of Hatfield House; the Hon. Reginald Capel, Little Cassiobury, Watford; Sir John Bennet Lawes, of Rothamsted; General Apsley Cherry-Garrard, of Lamer Park, Wheathampstead; Major Gape, St. Albans, and others; also to Mr. Lewis Evans, Belswains, Hemel Hempstead, for the loan of some rare tracts from his interesting collection of Hertfordshire matters, literary, pictorial, and curious; and for local information to Messrs. R. T. and W. F. Andrews, of Hertford; Mr. A. E. Gibbs, of St. Albans; Mr. G. Loosley, of Berkhamsted, and many others. While I am conscious that the life and work of a journalist may not seem quite consistent with that learned leisure which the writing of a book such as this may very properly demand, I yet venture to hope that the result of such use as I have been able to make of the intervals of a busy life may not be without interest for Hertfordshire readers, and perhaps for others outside the County.
